Bosox, did you really try to tell us that the Battier gif should have been a foul on George?
 
Battier pulled him to the ground. It was a clear attempt at trickery and the refs rightly didn't buy it.
How could he have pulled him down? You see his left arm not pulling him down. His right arm is the one that braces his fall, and he couldn't have pulled him down and gotten his arm in that position in that short of a time if he applied enough force to push down a 220lb person; it's literally not possible.

So explain to me how he pulled him to the ground. The best response for your case would be maybe Battier grabs him and tugs a bit on him, and then lets go. But then it's George still flopping to get the call. But unless Battier is the strongest man in the NBA by a lot, it's a flop on George/charge

He didn't pull him to the ground, but again, that's a foul on Battier. Just because you run into someone doesn't make it a charge, regardless of the severity. He wasn't close to being set.

Thats not the point. You point out injustice with burning rage when it fits your narrative, and only your narrative.

If he actually makes a post and you want to debate the truth behind it, then have at it. That's just good debate and discussion. But please don't do like bosox did and jump on his officiating opinions when he was talking about something completely different. It's not necessary.

Spurs shot 70.4% at the rim last night. They shot 44.7% in Games 3 and 4.

Least talked about factor in Popp going with the Bonner/Diaw combo last night. It led to Ibaka not only being pulled from the rim, but it also caused him to switch onto a guard like Parker or Ginobli a number of times last night. San Antonio was successful when that took place.

Let's make one thing clear: Miami is NEVER victimized by poor officiating. Never. It doesn't happen.
 
They shot 8 free throws because they were taking jump shots. LeBron was going to get into foul trouble, at some point. It happens.
 
Because LeBron is there, the Heat are immune to poor officiating. It doesn't happen.
